Thumbs up BRZ delivery dates brought forward

Recently a lot of people's BRZ delivery dates have been brought forward which was a welcome surprise to most of us. I decided to check my order today for shits and giggles and it's moved forward again since the last update. I ordered in August 2012 with an expected ETA of August 2013. That moved forward to May and when I check today, April.

I wonder if anyone else's orders have?

Yes the same thing happened to my order DGM premium with diffuser order placed end SEPT 12 delivery date quoted Oct 13. Recently updated delivery date JUNE 13 and now updated again about 2 weeks ago to MAY 13. Nothing from Subaru Australia as to why but must assume that like Toyota Subura has managed to get a bulk delivery so every body moves up. I have noted that all new orders are still quoting 13 months till delivery.

My only issue now is I have to find the money a bit sooner than expected!

That's good news llama_au, someone might of cancelled their order or requested it be moved further away. Also your colour choice plays a big part.

I just checked mine, my heart was racing! But I'm still on order for April pickup, I ordered 8th August for a WRB.

Cant wait!

Mine was originally Nov. '13. Got pushed up to June sometime in December, then again a couple weeks later. ETA is now May '13.

Stoked.

Ordered Sept. 29th.

mine wasn't brought forward but they have updated delivery date with a specific date of 16th Apr. Anyone know how accurate these delivery dates are? I've got a holiday planned just before this date.

Interesting. I keep logging in to see if I have a specific date, but none yet. Would be handy to know so I can sell off my current car/obtain finance at the right time

Not sure if this is actual new info, or just someone posting after the fact, but it could mean dates will get brought forward even more (I live in hope).

Yeah I read something a couple of days ago too, but pretty sure it's just reporting after the fact.

My delivery date was set for around the start of November but then jumped forward to mid-October around 6-8 weeks before the car was meant to show up.
If I remember correctly, Natalie (the BRZ coordinator) told me that the date was a worst case scenario and that if all goes well, then the car should show up before the original date.
I'm not sure if things have changed for this years deliveries, but I wouldn't count on the date being 100% accurate.

Hope this helps.

I think this ordering system is all over the shop, frankly I'm getting impatient, ordered August 8th. Due April. Just seems odd how people who ordered around 2 weeks before me received there cars already, yet some people ordered at launch and still haven't gotten theirs.

There is probably many factors at play, colour, transmission, nominated dealership, could be the good dam weather as far as I'm concerned.

Or this really is a sloppy system, where its a god damned lottery.

ive posted on another forum about this, so if you missed it heres the story:

i ordered on launch day, my cousin about 2 weeks later
same color, same transmission, both premium pack
and the same nominated dealership.
only diff is he got the nav and camera.
my cousin picks his up this week
my eta is march
so yeh you could say the system is pretty f**ked...
